AMI_BIOS_Images
The GigaVUE-TA25 has an AMI Basic Input/Output System (BIOS). The BIOS image is
packaged with the software image. The BIOS contents are stored in flash memory,
allowing the BIOS to be upgraded. There are two flash components, a primary and a
secondary.
The following CLI command displays the two flash components and indicates the BIOS
image from which the system booted using asterisks:
(config) # show version
1st flash version: amibios-ta25-1.1.2 Tue. May 12 15:55:13 UTC 2020 **
2nd flash version: amibios-ta25-1.1.2 Tue. May 12 15:55:13 UTC 2020
SW BIOS version: amibios-ta25-1.1.2 Tue. May 12 15:55:13 UTC 2020
...
If there is a component failure in the primary flash, the GigaVUE-TA25 boots from a
backup golden BIOS image in the secondary flash. An SNMP trap can be configured to
be sent when the system has booted from the secondary flash. The trap may indicate
that the primary flash component needs to be serviced. The trap is as follows:
